Ovulation test

Ann,
What would you recommend as a testing schedule?

I have read different things from different manufacturers of when to test- some say two times a day (mid-afternoon and evening) others say just once in the evening (and to have not had urinated in the last 2 hours- I'm guessing for more hormone level to build up).  What's a girl to do?

Thanks 

Good question because with the clear blue easy fertility monitor it said to test first thing in the morning???

If you are using the cheap OPKs, I would test twice a day -- once in the early afternoon and once after supper.  Then, if you see you are getting close (line almost there), you could try three times a day and add in morning.

Clearblue monitor is with FMU, but it reads more than just LH...that is why the difference. 

Good luck.

I looked on babywishes.org, which one have you found the simplest to use?

Just the green handled cheapest ones.  You will know within one cycle if they work for you.

Thanks, Ann! 

I buy them in bulk from ebay.  They are the same kind doctor's offices use.  I'm finally getting the hang of them, I think.  You really have to follow the directions precisely. 

I've considered the Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor as well but I haven't taken the 200 dollar plunge yet.
